We have been a bit quiet on this blog for a month or so. To jump-start the conversation again, let me announce the immediate availability of the RealBird Map-based REO Search service in the following 5 MLS markets:

As more and more properties go into foreclosure and eventually end up being bank owned, savvy home buyers and real estate investors seek bargain deals in REOs. Demand for bank owned properties has increased dramatically. With the new RealBird Map-based REO Search tool, you can now service this large home buyer segment and tap into the lucrative business.

We have released an update for two of our supported MLSs: SANDICOR in San Diego and MRIS in Maryland, DC and Northern Virginia. Fresh data is now pulled every two hours. In other words, your clients will be able to see properties almost as soon as they are listed in the MLS, through the map-based IDX search widget, MLS hotlist widgets and MLS RSS feed

For those of you who are patiently waiting for us to add new MLS coverages, the good news is that finally we started to work on a major push to cover more area and within a month or so, we'll be announcing many new markets. If you are interested and have not done so yet, you can submit your request here and we'll notify you as soon as the service is available for your market.
